2020 New Fall Season – Tuesdays

old-tv-set1Continuing our look at the new, pandemic-impacted fall season, here are the offerings that I may find myself interested in for Tuesdays.

7:00

Weakest Link – The British import returns to NBC, this time with Jane Lynch on board as host.

Swamp Thing – The CW gets in on the repurposing game by bringing this former DC Universe series over to broadcast.

9:00

Big Sky – David E. Kelley returns with his latest, based on the novel The Highway by C. J. Box, starring Kylie Bunbury and Katheryn Winnick as private detectives looking for kidnapped sisters.

Post Mortem – Pitch

On May 1st, nearly 5 months after airing its last episode, the executive producer of Pitch announced that the show would not be returning for a second season.  Pitch, about the first female major league baseball player, premiered to high acclaim but couldn’t translate that in to viewers.  I was a bit skeptical at first, but was won over by star Kylie Bunbury and a surprising dramatic turn by Mark-Paul Gosselaar.  It was certainly the most interesting the Padres have been in years.
